Functions to bootstrap and zero pages in various SLRU callers were fairly duplicative. We can slash almost two hundred lines with a couple of simple helpers: - SimpleLruZeroAndWritePage: Does the equivalent of SimpleLruZeroPage followed by flushing the page to disk - XLogSimpleInsertInt64: Does a XLogBeginInsert followed by XLogInsert of a trivial record whose data is just an int64.

4 daysDisable commit timestamps during bootstrapMichael Paquier
Attempting to use commit timestamps during bootstrapping leads to an assertion failure, that can be reached for example with an initdb -c that enables track_commit_timestamp. It makes little sense to register a commit timestamp for a BootstrapTransactionId, so let's disable the activation of the module in this case. This problem has been independently reported once by each author of this commit. Each author has proposed basically the same patch, relying on IsBootstrapProcessingMode() to skip the use of commit_ts during bootstrap. The test addition is a suggestion by me, and is applied down to v16.

2024-05-17Revise GUC names quoting in messages againPeter Eisentraut
After further review, we want to move in the direction of always quoting GUC names in error messages, rather than the previous (PG16) wildly mixed practice or the intermittent (mid-PG17) idea of doing this depending on how possibly confusing the GUC name is. This commit applies appropriate quotes to (almost?) all mentions of GUC names in error messages. It partially supersedes a243569bf65 and 8d9978a7176, which had moved things a bit in the opposite direction but which then were abandoned in a partial state.

2024-03-04Remove unused #include's from backend .c filesPeter Eisentraut
as determined by include-what-you-use (IWYU) While IWYU also suggests to *add* a bunch of #include's (which is its main purpose), this patch does not do that. In some cases, a more specific #include replaces another less specific one. Some manual adjustments of the automatic result: - IWYU currently doesn't know about includes that provide global variable declarations (like -Wmissing-variable-declarations), so those includes are being kept manually. - All includes for port(ability) headers are being kept for now, to play it safe. - No changes of catalog/pg_foo.h to catalog/pg_foo_d.h, to keep the patch from exploding in size. Note that this patch touches just *.c files, so nothing declared in header files changes in hidden ways. As a small example, in src/backend/access/transam/rmgr.c, some IWYU pragma annotations are added to handle a special case there.

2024-02-28Improve performance of subsystems on top of SLRUAlvaro Herrera
More precisely, what we do here is make the SLRU cache sizes configurable with new GUCs, so that sites with high concurrency and big ranges of transactions in flight (resp. multixacts/subtransactions) can benefit from bigger caches. In order for this to work with good performance, two additional changes are made: 1. the cache is divided in "banks" (to borrow terminology from CPU caches), and algorithms such as eviction buffer search only affect one specific bank. This forestalls the problem that linear searching for a specific buffer across the whole cache takes too long: we only have to search the specific bank, whose size is small. This work is authored by Andrey Borodin. 2. Change the locking regime for the SLRU banks, so that each bank uses a separate LWLock. This allows for increased scalability. This work is authored by Dilip Kumar. (A part of this was previously committed as d172b717c6f4.) Special care is taken so that the algorithms that can potentially traverse more than one bank release one bank's lock before acquiring the next. This should happen rarely, but particularly clog.c's group commit feature needed code adjustment to cope with this. I (Álvaro) also added lots of comments to make sure the design is sound. The new GUCs match the names introduced by bcdfa5f2e2f2 in the pg_stat_slru view. The default values for these parameters are similar to the previous sizes of each SLRU. commit_ts, clog and subtrans accept value 0, which means to adjust by dividing shared_buffers by 512 (so 2MB for every 1GB of shared_buffers), with a cap of 8MB. (A new slru.c function SimpleLruAutotuneBuffers() was added to support this.) The cap was previously 1MB for clog, so for sites with more than 512MB of shared memory the total memory used increases, which is likely a good tradeoff. However, other SLRUs (notably multixact ones) retain smaller sizes and don't support a configured value of 0. These values based on shared_buffers may need to be revisited, but that's an easy change. There was some resistance to adding these new GUCs: it would be better to adjust to memory pressure automatically somehow, for example by stealing memory from shared_buffers (where the caches can grow and shrink naturally). However, doing that seems to be a much larger project and one which has made virtually no progress in several years, and because this is such a pain point for so many users, here we take the pragmatic approach.

The new names are intended to match those in an upcoming patch that adds a few GUCs to configure the SLRU buffer sizes. Backwards compatibility concern: this changes the accepted names for function pg_stat_slru_rest(). Since this function recognizes "any other string" as a request to reset the entry for "other", this means that calling it with the old names would silently reset "other" instead of doing nothing or throwing an error.

2020-09-25Defer flushing of SLRU files.Thomas Munro
Previously, we called fsync() after writing out individual pg_xact, pg_multixact and pg_commit_ts pages due to cache pressure, leading to regular I/O stalls in user backends and recovery. Collapse requests for the same file into a single system call as part of the next checkpoint, as we already did for relation files, using the infrastructure developed by commit 3eb77eba. This can cause a significant improvement to recovery performance, especially when it's otherwise CPU-bound. Hoist ProcessSyncRequests() up into CheckPointGuts() to make it clearer that it applies to all the SLRU mini-buffer-pools as well as the main buffer pool. Rearrange things so that data collected in CheckpointStats includes SLRU activity. Also remove the Shutdown{CLOG,CommitTS,SUBTRANS,MultiXact}() functions, because they were redundant after the shutdown checkpoint that immediately precedes them.

2020-05-15Rename SLRU structures and associated LWLocks.Tom Lane
Originally, the names assigned to SLRUs had no purpose other than being shmem lookup keys, so not a lot of thought went into them. As of v13, though, we're exposing them in the pg_stat_slru view and the pg_stat_reset_slru function, so it seems advisable to take a bit more care. Rename them to names based on the associated on-disk storage directories (which fortunately we *did* think about, to some extent; since those are also visible to DBAs, consistency seems like a good thing). Also rename the associated LWLocks, since those names are likewise user-exposed now as wait event names. For the most part I only touched symbols used in the respective modules' SimpleLruInit() calls, not the names of other related objects. This renaming could have been taken further, and maybe someday we will do so. But for now it seems undesirable to change the names of any globally visible functions or structs, so some inconsistency is unavoidable. (But I *did* terminate "oldserxid" with prejudice, as I found that name both unreadable and not descriptive of the SLRU's contents.) Table 27.12 needs re-alphabetization now, but I'll leave that till after the other LWLock renamings I have in mind. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/[email protected]

2019-03-28Add basic infrastructure for 64 bit transaction IDs.Thomas Munro
Instead of inferring epoch progress from xids and checkpoints, introduce a 64 bit FullTransactionId type and use it to track xid generation. This fixes an unlikely bug where the epoch is reported incorrectly if the range of active xids wraps around more than once between checkpoints. The only user-visible effect of this commit is to correct the epoch used by txid_current() and txid_status(), also visible with pg_controldata, in those rare circumstances. It also creates some basic infrastructure so that later patches can use 64 bit transaction IDs in more places. The new type is a struct that we pass by value, as a form of strong typedef.

2018-11-21Remove WITH OIDS support, change oid catalog column visibility.Andres Freund
Previously tables declared WITH OIDS, including a significant fraction of the catalog tables, stored the oid column not as a normal column, but as part of the tuple header. This special column was not shown by default, which was somewhat odd, as it's often (consider e.g. pg_class.oid) one of the more important parts of a row. Neither pg_dump nor COPY included the contents of the oid column by default. The fact that the oid column was not an ordinary column necessitated a significant amount of special case code to support oid columns. That already was painful for the existing, but upcoming work aiming to make table storage pluggable, would have required expanding and duplicating that "specialness" significantly. WITH OIDS has been deprecated since 2005 (commit ff02d0a05280e0). Remove it. Removing includes: - CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE syntax for declaring the table to be WITH OIDS has been removed (WITH (oids[ = true]) will error out) - pg_dump does not support dumping tables declared WITH OIDS and will issue a warning when dumping one (and ignore the oid column). - restoring an pg_dump archive with pg_restore will warn when restoring a table with oid contents (and ignore the oid column) - COPY will refuse to load binary dump that includes oids. - pg_upgrade will error out when encountering tables declared WITH OIDS, they have to be altered to remove the oid column first. - Functionality to access the oid of the last inserted row (like plpgsql's RESULT_OID, spi's SPI_lastoid, ...) has been removed. The syntax for declaring a table WITHOUT OIDS (or WITH (oids = false) for CREATE TABLE) is still supported. While that requires a bit of support code, it seems unnecessary to break applications / dumps that do not use oids, and are explicit about not using them. The biggest user of WITH OID columns was postgres' catalog. This commit changes all 'magic' oid columns to be columns that are normally declared and stored. To reduce unnecessary query breakage all the newly added columns are still named 'oid', even if a table's column naming scheme would indicate 'reloid' or such. This obviously requires adapting a lot code, mostly replacing oid access via HeapTupleGetOid() with access to the underlying Form_pg_*->oid column. The bootstrap process now assigns oids for all oid columns in genbki.pl that do not have an explicit value (starting at the largest oid previously used), only oids assigned later by oids will be above FirstBootstrapObjectId. As the oid column now is a normal column the special bootstrap syntax for oids has been removed. Oids are not automatically assigned during insertion anymore, all backend code explicitly assigns oids with GetNewOidWithIndex(). For the rare case that insertions into the catalog via SQL are called for the new pg_nextoid() function can be used (which only works on catalog tables). The fact that oid columns on system tables are now normal columns means that they will be included in the set of columns expanded by * (i.e. SELECT * FROM pg_class will now include the table's oid, previously it did not). It'd not technically be hard to hide oid column by default, but that'd mean confusing behavior would either have to be carried forward forever, or it'd cause breakage down the line. While it's not unlikely that further adjustments are needed, the scope/invasiveness of the patch makes it worthwhile to get merge this now. It's painful to maintain externally, too complicated to commit after the code code freeze, and a dependency of a number of other patches. Catversion bump, for obvious reasons.

The activation and deactivation of commit timestamp tracking has not been handled consistently for a primary or standbys at recovery. The facility can be activated at three different moments of recovery: - The beginning, where a primary would use the GUC value for the decision-making, and where a standby relies on the contents of the control file. - When replaying a XLOG_PARAMETER_CHANGE record at redo. - The end, where both primary and standby rely on the GUC value. Using the GUC value for a primary at the beginning of recovery causes problems with commit timestamp access when doing crash recovery. Particularly, when replaying transaction commits, it could be possible that an attempt to read commit timestamps is done for a transaction which committed at a moment when track_commit_timestamp was disabled. A test case is added to reproduce the failure. The test works down to v11 as it takes advantage of transaction commits within procedures.

2017-11-08Change TRUE/FALSE to true/falsePeter Eisentraut
The lower case spellings are C and C++ standard and are used in most parts of the PostgreSQL sources. The upper case spellings are only used in some files/modules. So standardize on the standard spellings. The APIs for ICU, Perl, and Windows define their own TRUE and FALSE, so those are left as is when using those APIs. In code comments, we use the lower-case spelling for the C concepts and keep the upper-case spelling for the SQL concepts. Reviewed-by: Michael Paquier <[email protected]>

This affects mostly code comments, some documentation, and tests. Official APIs already used "standby".
2017-06-21Phase 3 of pgindent updates.Tom Lane
Don't move parenthesized lines to the left, even if that means they flow past the right margin. By default, BSD indent lines up statement continuation lines that are within parentheses so that they start just to the right of the preceding left parenthesis. However, traditionally, if that resulted in the continuation line extending to the right of the desired right margin, then indent would push it left just far enough to not overrun the margin, if it could do so without making the continuation line start to the left of the current statement indent. That makes for a weird mix of indentations unless one has been completely rigid about never violating the 80-column limit. This behavior has been pretty universally panned by Postgres developers. Hence, disable it with indent's new -lpl switch, so that parenthesized lines are always lined up with the preceding left paren. This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

2017-03-17Rename "pg_clog" directory to "pg_xact".Robert Haas
Names containing the letters "log" sometimes confuse users into believing that only non-critical data is present. It is hoped this renaming will discourage ill-considered removals of transaction status data.

2017-01-19Fix race condition in reading commit timestampsAlvaro Herrera
If a user requests the commit timestamp for a transaction old enough that its data is concurrently being truncated away by vacuum at just the right time, they would receive an ugly internal file-not-found error message from slru.c rather than the expected NULL return value. In a primary server, the window for the race is very small: the lookup has to occur exactly between the two calls by vacuum, and there's not a lot that happens between them (mostly just a multixact truncate). In a standby server, however, the window is larger because the truncation is executed as soon as the WAL record for it is replayed, but the advance of the oldest-Xid is not executed until the next checkpoint record. To fix in the primary, simply reverse the order of operations in vac_truncate_clog. To fix in the standby, augment the WAL truncation record so that the standby is aware of the new oldest-XID value and can apply the update immediately. WAL version bumped because of this. No backpatch, because of the low importance of the bug and its rarity.
